How do I pay using a credit card?
We accept both Paypal and Google Checkout.
We recommend Google Checkout for quickest and most reliable service. Google Checkout does require a Google Checkout account, which you set up automatically when entering in your payment information. When purchasing with Google Checkout we recommend unchecking the option conceal your email address: if you do this you will not receive your license automatically but will need to contact support to get your license.
Paypal does not require a paypal account, when you check out you will get redirected to the paypal website. Simply click on the "Continue" button under "Don't have a paypal account?"
I've paid via paypal and it has been more than 24 hours why have I not received an e-mail with instructions on how to unlock my software?
There are two possibilities:
- The e-mail has been sent but has been caught by your spam filter, please check this
- You have paid via e-Check, in which case we must wait until the check clears before paypal posts the order to us. This typically takes 3 business days.
I've paid via Google Checkout and it has been more than 24 hours why have I not received an e-mail with instructions on how to unlock my software?
This can happen because you chose to hide your email address using Google Checkout. If you’ve done this you will not get your license automatically and will need to contact support. When contacting support, please include the full transaction ID provided to you at purchase by Google Checkout (you can also locate it in your email receipt).
